If he's here, who's running hell?

YouTube - The Man in Black vs Inigo Montoya Another one of my favorite childhood movies that I still love as an adult. Rip Rob Reiner. A movie where removing Fred Savage and Peter Falk would have made this movie much less annoying in places, "Do I really have to listen to the kissing part?" Huh Grandpa? It would have also probably made the movie quite a bit darker in tone. Sounds like a real fun project actually.  The fight scene is perfect from the choreography to the acting, soundtrack, pacing, writing. "Who are you?" "No one of consequence." "I must know." "Get used to disappointment." Westley has to face off against Vizzini, hired by Prince Humperdinck to capture Buttercup, aka The Princess Bride. He does this to start some kind of a WAR With Guilder, which they never explain why that would be a good thing for anyone including Humperdinck.  After besting Inigo, Westley aka The Man in Black faces off against Andre the Giant aka Fezz...

YouTube - Colonial Marines Prep Before Drop Aliens was one of first favorite movies ever. I loved everything from the creatures themselves to the film's setting to all the humans raging from heroine Ripley, child Newt, Company Man but rat-fuck son-of-a-bitch Burke, new Lieutenant Gnorman, Sergeant Apone, clown Hudson or is it Hicks, and the rest of the marines. This scene is my favorite, the score does a ton of work admittedly, as does Apone. "Absolutely Badasses!" James Cameron, the bravest pioneer, sounds like had a hell of a time making the movie in the UK. Protests and firings were big issues onset. But Cameron left the franchise on top, on par or very close to the original. Alien 3 on the other hand was one of the most disappointing things I have ever watched in my life. I never wanted to turn a movie off after 30 seconds before. I think any of the scenes with the marines are rewatchable. I realize I'm going on a wild tagent by posting all these scenes, but I lov...

YouTube - Gandalf Frees Theoden I already did The Hobbit, but that was quite a bit different as those were all songs. Lord of the Rings Extended Edition is 12 hours of footage wrapped into 3 movies. I am able to pick my most rewatchable scene, but I love the whole thing. I don't know if I could give it much criticism if I tried. Gandalf and Frodo are awesome characters. Sam and Aragorn are real heroes. It's hard to fully understand what Sauron is truly capable of but the stakes are made very clear throughout from the first few lines, the Ring has gots to go. We hear little about Rohan in the first Fellowship movie. Theoden is not mentioned that I can remember nor the riders of Rohan, Eowyn, Grima. This introduction of Gandalf the White to Grima and Saruman controlled Theoden is the first glorious victory brought by the remains of the Fellowhip. Boromir died, Merry and Pippin were captured, Frodo was stabbed multiple times already and took off with Sam and Gollum behind them. Sa...

YouTube - He Gets On Base The perfect rewatchable scene movie. Moneyball might be the best baseball movie with as little as actual baseball as possible. Sure there are a few clips, slow motion plays and old news footage but nothing shown from Pitt's Beane' point of view. It's sort of like Major League but the main character is a rightfully scorned former player turned GM, instead of a vengeful coach and team. There are many rewatchable scenes, but the whole movie has almost like these minor intermissions, sometimes just music playing to baseball or something about Billy Beane's career. Rewatchable scenes include where Peter Brand is explaining to Pitt's character how teams should buy wins, not players. YouTube - Beane meets Brand How many assessments did you do? 47, actually 51. I don't know why I lied just there. Feels like Jonah Hill should have done his pitch better before he got hired. YouTube - Peter Brand's First Day The second best thing in the movie ...

YouTube - Matthew McConaughey Chest Thumping I honestly haven't watched this movie a second time. I don't think it was that good at all or good enough where I feel like I need to re-watch it. I love Leo and Matthew though, so if I were to redo either filmography, this movie fits there. And I love this scene, it sails beyond any other here.  Matthew McConaughey's chest thumping was his own idea. The humming was inspired by McConaughey's real life pre performance ritual. He has described using humming and chest thumping as a way of getting himself into a relaxed, focused state before performing. DiCaprio was already deeply invested in the scene, but McConaughey's improvised behavior threw him off in a way that helped create the natural reaction you see from Jordan. The scene helped establish Hanna immediately. McConaughey only appears in a handful of scenes, but this lunch is essentially Jordan's introduction to the Wall Street lifestyle he's about to embrace....

YouTube - It's the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man "Sub-creatures! Gozer the Gozerian, Gozer the Destructor, Volguus Zildrohar, the Traveller has come! Choose and perish!" Those words always give me chills. It's hard for me to pick a point in this movie and not let it ride to the end. Partly because the ending is so good. I did like bringing Gozer back in Afterlife. Really all the ghost scenes are splendid. The only part in the movie I don't like watching is when Walter Peck goes in to shut down the containment unit. Rick Moranis is a treasure -  YouTube - Yes, Have Some! The opening is also very rewatchable from Bill Murray trying to get a date to a librarian seeing a ghost. YouTube - The Library Ghost And Slimer of course -  YouTube - First Outing And finally while I don't like the leadup to the containment exploding, the montage that follows is pretty good.  YouTube - Explosion Releases Ghosts
